Enrique Ramirez sweeps rose pedals into the burial containers for three babies Saturday before putting the lid on them, in the Garden of Innocence. The Garden of Innocence project buried three more children Saturday, bringing the total to 136 babies memorialized in a small cemetery plot at El Camino Memorial Cemetery. Garden of Innocence was started in San Diego by Elissa Davey in 1999 to give a full burial for babies who were abandoned by their parents after they died.
